Answer: The side of the original square is 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , the sides of the original square is lengthened by 7 feet.

The area of the new square = 121  square feet.

Let the original side of square be<em> 'x'.</em>

The new side = <em>x+7</em>

Area of new square =(side)² = <em>(x+7)²</em>

As per given , we have

(x+7)^2=121

\Rightarrow\ (x+7)^2=11^2\ \ \ [\because\ 11^2=121]

Taking square roots on both sides , we get

x+7=11\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=11-7=4

Hence, the side of the original square is 4 feet.

Find the equation of the line that passes through the point of intersection of x + 2y = 9 and 4x -2y = -4 and the point of inter
Rudik [331]

Answer:

y=-6x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

The point of intersection of

x+2y=9...eqn1


and


4x-2y=-4...eqn2

is the solution of the two equations.


We add equation (1) and equation(2) to get,

x+4x+2y-2y=9+-4


\Rightarrow 5x=5


\Rightarrow x=1

We put x=1 into equation (1) to get,

1+2y=9

\Rightarrow 2y=9-1

\Rightarrow 2y=8

\Rightarrow y=4


Therefore the line passes through the point, (1,4).


The line also passes through the point of intersection of

3x-4y=14...eqn(3)

and

3x+7y=-8...eqn(4)

We subtract equation (3) from equation (4) to obtain,

3x-3x+7y--4y=-8-14


\Rightarrow 11y=-22

\Rightarrow y=-2


We substitute this value into equation (4) to get,

3x+7(-2)=-8


3x-14=-8


3x=-8+14


3x=6

x=2

The line also passes through

(2,-2)



The slope of the line is

slope=\frac{4--2}{1-2} =\frac{6}{-1}=-6


The equation of the line is

y+2=-6(x-2)

y+2=-6x+12


y=-6x+10 is the required equation

100 POINTS PLZ HELPPP Drag each tile to the correct box. Arrange the expressions in increasing order of their estimated values.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

<h3>\frac{\sqrt{24}- \sqrt{54} }{\sqrt{6}} = -1   </h3><h3>\sqrt{\frac{9}{20}*\frac{10\sqrt{2} }{3\sqrt{5} } = 1.4142</h3><h3>\frac{10\pi\sqrt{2}-8\pi\sqrt{2}}{2\sqrt{2}}  = π =3.14159</h3><h3>\pi\sqrt{\frac{5}{3}}\cdot\pi\sqrt{\frac{3}{5}} = π² = 9.8696</h3>

Explanation:

1.) Rewrite √24 = \sqrt{4*6} = 2\sqrt{6}   Rewrite √54 =\sqrt{9*6}= 3\sqrt{6}

Divide both terms by the denominator; √6 cancels. 2-3 = -1

2.) Rewrite as \frac{3}{2\sqrt{5}} ×\frac{10\sqrt{2}}{3\sqrt{5}}  The 3's cancel.  10/2 = 5√2 in the numerator.

√5 × √5 = 5 in the denominator.  The 5's cancel.

That leaves √2 ≈1.4142

3.) Divide the terms in the numerator by the term in the denominator.

√2's cancel.  10π/2 = 5π   8π/2 = 4π  

Subtract and we are left with π = 3.14159

4.) \pi\sqrt{\frac{5}{3}}\cdot\pi\sqrt{\frac{3}{5}}  The square roots are reciprocals. They multiply to 1

We are left with π × π = π² ≈  9.8696

The average of four numbers is 26.
Alchen [17]

Answer: 26!!

Step-by-step explanation: the average is like the mean which is all 4 numbers added together divided by 4. 26 times 4 is 104. 20 +42+16  = 78. 104 - 78 is 26 so the 4th number is 26. you can check the work by adding 20 42 16 and 26 together which equals 104. 104 divided by 4 is 26!! so our answer is correct!!
